Blind Assessment
Evaluated as espresso. Sweetly tart, chocolaty. Black cherry, apricot, dark chocolate, narcissus and lily, hints of spice in aroma and small cup. Light, satiny mouthfeel; tartly fruit- and spice-toned finish. A pleasing, lively, fruit-nuanced chocolate dominates in three parts milk.

Who Should Drink It
A deeply expressed dark chocolate anchors complex floral, fruit and spice notes: complex and invigorating.
